Safety First

I go on long runs, and I go on runs in the dark, so I thought it was time to purchase two essential safety items for myself.

1. Nathan Reflective Belt I remember running on the side of the road, on a sidewalk, in a not so well lit area and thinking (a) no one can see me, and (b) no one knows who I am. While some of my running clothes have nice built in zipper pockets, others do not. I purchased this belt for on my shorter runs at night. It is not only reflective, but it also has a handy pocket for carrying identification and bringing along a cell phone for emergencies.

2. CAMELBAK Mini-M.U.L.E After my last bout with dehydration, I intend on remaining fully hydrated during my long runs. My long runs are during the daylight hours, so I don't need reflection, but I still need a pocket for my identification and cell phone. This CAMELBACK will not only keep my hydrated, but it also includes pockets! Steal of the Night: All of the CAMELBACKS were placed on the wrong rack, so I got this one for half price!

*I will add a review on each of these after the weekend!
